Megadeth Featured as Answer on ‘Jeopardy’

If you watch the long-running quiz show Jeopardy, you got at least one answer right the other night... well, at least we hope you did.

When one contestant asked for the $1,600 question in the "Celebrating 35 Years" category, host Alex Trebek read, "Though Dave Mustaine says he didn't even anticipate living to be 35, this band of his is celebrating that anniversary." Of course, we all know the answer is Megadeth — sorry, "What is Megadeth?" — which was correctly answered by the contestant.

Megadeth's David Ellefson captured the video clip and shared it for all to see on his Instagram page, which can be viewed below.

It wasn't the first time Mustaine and Megadeth got a nod on Jeopardy. In 2014, Trebek prompted contestants to respond with the correct answer to, “In 2014, Megadeth’s Dave Mustaine sat in with the S.D. Symphony to play ‘Winter’ from ‘The Four Seasons’ by this man.”

Megadeth are expected to release a new album next year and Mustaine posted a short teaser, the first clip of new music, earlier this month. The thrash legends will also hit the road in 2019, supporting Ozzy Osbourne on another North American leg of his farewell tour. See those dates below.
